I'd been playing with this for yonks, then I realised what it needed; a man in tweed. A quick sketch for Illustration Friday in between adventures :)

Hoping to get this one polished off, too, cos I'm quite fond of him! I think he worked at the school, teaching geography by day & moonlighting as a semi-professional cat breeder by night. Then something changed, & he ends up getting to the bottom of some pretty big, pretty old secrets!

I'm making another attempt at more vintage muted colours, too. Onwards bound! :)
